Your Advisor or Chairperson (chair) is responsible for approving, monitoring, and signing off the work completed for the requirement. You must have PRIOR approval from your advisor/chair before you begin. This includes advisor permission to register. The formal process begins with the completion and approval of the independent study contract. Note: While you will work independently for this experience, there will be a Canvas-accessed portal for weekly reporting and to facilitate communication and submission expectations.
